Fun/Cheap Pedalboard Project

Here is my take on a Gorm pedal board. It's constructed from Ikea shelving (about $10), $10 in hardware, some paint, and the most expensive part- Velcro--- all in all, about $30 total. It's decently lightweight, the dimensions of a Pedaltrain Pro, and pretty darn sturdy. I designed it to have adjustable tilt, compartment underneath for power supply and cable storage, and easier access to cabling... and of course, I had to add IKEA badging for fun.

Wow that is nice, you should build another, taking pics each step of the process, and post it up along with the plans and dimensions of the parts... and then send me the completed board as a birthday gift (5/16). ;-)

I too would like to know what you did. I just picked up the large Gorm to do this. Was not sure if I should add an angle to it.

What are you planning to do to transport it, if anything?

I built it really close to the Pedaltrain Pro size so that I could just buy one of their gig bags ($75 new) if I can't figure something else out... I also found a SKB mixer case used for a reasonable price...

Any other ideas are welcome... maybe I'll go peruse the aisles at IKEA again... ha ha

My impression was that the Gorm comes in ~30"x20" and ~30"x12". It looks to me like you cut the large one down to ~30"x16", close to the 32"x16" of a PT Pro. Accurate?
